Description

Requirement.

The Authority has a potential requirement for a Land Mobility Programme (LMP). It will deliver a fleet of modernised, digitally enabled and adaptable protected mobility and utility platforms, that leverage the very best industry has to offer, providing the Joint Force with globally competitive platforms that meet the demand now, and in the future.

The Authority will deliver a Land Mobility Programme brief at Defence Vehicle Dynamics 24 (DVD 24) on 18 September 2024. The brief is scheduled to be delivered between 1120 and 1220hrs although the Authority retains the right to change the time without notice to meet the needs of DVD 24.

Route to Market

This Prior Information Notice has been issued to enable industry to attend the Land Mobility Programme brief and consider whether they would want to be engaged in any future procurement. This is a pre-concept brief, and the Authority is not committed to exact requirements or to establish the programme.

Timing

Defence Vehicle Dynamics 18 September 2024.

Next Steps

Should the Land Mobility Programme Strategic Outline Case gain formal UK cross-government endorsement, the Authority will seek expressions of interest. Further announcements are expected to be issued as and when the programme is initiated. This will seek expressions of interest in the programme, providing the same information as that presented at DVD.

On endorsement, a pre-market engagement questionnaire is expected to be issued. Any suppliers who have an interest in this programme should express an interest to Army-ProgsLandMobilityProgramme@mod.gov.uk. The detail of the projects and any selection criteria (if any) for issuing the questionnaire will be developed and published in future announcements.
